Description egc 2014-03-22 12:48:17 CET

Description of problem:
When resuming from suspend there is a black screen with the mouse pointer. The mouse pointer is not blocked, i can change to Ctrl-Alt-F2, but then the monitor goes in sleeping mode. The only thing i can do at this point is to make a soft reboot (Ctrl-Alt-Del).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Mageia 4
dkms-nvidia-current-331.49-1.mga4.nonfree
x11-driver-video-nvidia-current-331.49-1.mga4.nonfree

How reproducible:
Almost every time, but not always ...

Steps to Reproduce:

lspcidrake:

Also, when testing the nvidia driver in mcc it shows en error, even if the card works in that moment.

I just wanted to add: everything worked fine in Mageia 3

nouveau driver does not work at all with this card. X won't start.

Comment 3 egc 2014-03-26 22:33:22 CET

I downloaded and installed the driver (same version as Mageia has) from Nvidia homepage a few days ago and it seems to work. No black screens anymore.
So i guess it is a Mageia issue ...

Well, sometimes it still happens also with the original Nvidia driver ...

Is anybody trying to repair this or should i return to Mageia 3?
Thanks!
